Most setups I've seen use a cone filter and hose to factory air hat, or hose
to factory air box then to air hat. Classic ram air is hood scoop and an air
box containing a open element filter where the air box is sealed to the hood
when the hood is closed. I don't want ram air, I just want colder air to top
of the engine. Maybe I could graft a little NACA scoop just behind the hood
medallion.
